But, oh how important those years are! At MAXlife, it&rsquo;s not our desire to take your place as the spiritual leader of your teen. It&rsquo;s our desire to partner with you as you lead your teen to grow in their faith and live their lives for God.<br>&nbsp;<br>You have dreams and goals for your teen, and we want to champion those goals with you. Below is a snapshot of actions your teen can take in an effort to grow in their character and faith.<br><br></span><a style="border-color: #1E439B; background-color: #1e439b; color: #fff; font-weight: bold; font-size: 16px; padding-top: 0; padding-bottom: 0; height: 41px; border-radius: 0; text-transform: uppercase; margin-left: 30px; text-align: center; vertical-align: middle; cursor: pointer; border: 1px solid transparent; padding: 0.375rem 0.75rem; user-select: none; text-decoration: none !important;" href="https://mecklenburg.us7.list-manage.com/subscribe?u=243cd73aa04d2106fcd055c47&amp;id=87977116d5" target="_blank" rel="noopener" type="button">SUBSCRIBE TO WEEKLY EMAILS</a></p>";s:19:"opportunities_title";s:95:"<div>Check Out the Resources Below to Help You Reach Your Goals for Your Teen and Family:</div>";s:11:"content_img";s:14:"5897756225.jpg";s:13:"opportunities";a:4:{i:0;a:2:{s:5:"title";s:42:"<div>Goals for Every MAXlife Student</div>";s:11:"description";s:522:"<ul>
